Abstract
A coin holder made of plastic, or another suitably flexible material, having a flexible base, a flexible wall extending at a right angle from the base, a T-shaped tab extending outwardly from the base, and one or more tab-receiving slots in the base. The base and wall form a recess into which a coin may be fitted. The slots accept the T-shaped tab of another coin holder at an angle, and lock the coin holders together when the angle is reduced. In addition, the invention includes a flexible band into which coin holders may be attached for holding and display by being anchored parallel to the flexible band, or hanging freely from the flexible band.
